Let Me Tell A Story…

 Climb up here on Ol’ Pappy’s knee

and let me tell a story.

Once upon a time…

There was this little boy

Who thought he’d chase the moon and stars

So he set out on a voyage

Over land and through the seas

He followed every twinkling

But never catching anything

He sat, a bit discouraged.

Heavenward, he raised his eyes

And in a small voice, asked God why?

Is it impossible to touch the sky?

As he waited there for Gods reply

The sky grew dark

As day passed to night.

The moon and stars began to shine

As if to say…

Don’t be dismayed

You may not touch us

But we’ll guide your way.

Every night

We’ll be your light

This is why we’re here.

Keep chasing dreams,

Curiosities

And child, do not fear

For I your God am with you

In every wonderment and storm

I put those dreams inside of you

I made the moon and stars. 

Now it’s time to close your eyes 

And lay your sleepy head

Gently in OL’ Pappy’s arms

To find sweet dreams and rest.
